I love waffles and these Buttery Golden Buttermilk Waffles are a great recipe to have in my collection. These would also be perfect to make for mom for breakfast on Mother’s Day.
These waffles are easy to make. The key ingredient to these recipes is buttermilk. The real deal is what makes the best waflle. Buttermilk substitutes just don’t give you the same results.
The other key ingrient to this recipe is butter. Melted butter is mixed into the batter. These waffles are lightly crispy on the outside and cake like on the inside.
Most of the time, I prefer to top my waffles with some kind of fruit and sweetened whipped cream. For the photo, I topped these buttery golden buttermilk waffles with homemade fresh strawberry syrup.
